Six Sigma: Six Sigma is a rigorous and a systematic methodology that utilizes information (management by facts and data) and statistical analysis to measure and improve a company's operational performance, practices and systems by identifying and preventing 'defects' in manufacturing, distribution, healthcare and service-related processes in order to anticipate and exceed the expectations of all stakeholders.

Six Sigma Training Workshops (Black, Green and Yellow belt)
Note: We customize the training materials based on business sector and process while offering flexible scheduling options that best fit the needs of our clients.

Six Sigma Black Belt Workshop:
The Six Sigma Black Belt workshop consists of 17 days of quality, statistics, and change management training. In order to be accepted into the training a candidate must have a project that has been assigned by appropriate management levels and addresses an issue that is strategic to the success of his/her organization. The project should be structured such that it returns a minimum of $50,000 in verifiable payback to the company, which more than offsets the investment in the training cost.

Six Sigma Green Belt Workshop:
The Six Sigma Green Belt workshop consists of 8 days of quality, statistics, and change management training. It is the first two weeks of Black Belt training. A Green Belt project is similar to that of a Black Belt project, but typically smaller in scope, and usually returning approximately $25,000 in savings to the organization. A Green Belt can pursue a Black Belt certification upon successful completion of his/her Green Belt project, attending the remaining two weeks of training, and successfully completing a Black Belt project.

The following topics are presented in the first 8 days of training, and comprise the Green Belt Workshop, and the first two weeks of Black Belt Workshop:

  • Change Management Skills
  • Team Building Skills
  • Project Management
  • Statistical Thinking
  • Software Training (JMP or Minitab)
  • Problem Definition
  • Collecting & Summarizing Data
  • Voice of the Customer
  • Systems Thinking
  • Control Charts
  • Measurement Systems Analysis
  • Failure Modes & Effects Analysis
  • Defects & Yield Measures

These additional topics are presented and complete the Black Belt Workshop:

  • Confidence Intervals
  • Statistical Intervals
  • Modeling Data
  • Design of Experiments, including Response Surface Designs
  • Reliability
  • Pugh's Concept Selection
  • Tolerance Analysis
  • Variance Components Analysis
  • Robust Experimental Design
  • Functional Analysis Based Process Verification (FAB-PV)

Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt Workshop:
The Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt workshop consists of 6 days of basic lean and six sigma history, terminology, methodology and tools. It is recommended that the 6 days are spread over a 3 to 6 month period to allow time to work on projects. Each student will be required to work on a project and turn in a written report showing the use of the Lean Six Sigma tools and improvements in the primary metric. This workshop has been designed to train people with minimal to no prior experience in statistics, lean or six sigma. The students do not need any prerequisites, but should have a desire to learn and apply what they learned. This is an excellent workshop for office personnel, healthcare staff, non-for-profit staff and manufacturing technicians. Let's tap the knowledge of our process owners.

Introduction to Lean Six Sigma:
Organizations are now integrating lean and six sigma to maximize their continuous improvement initiatives. This ½ day to a full day training workshop will give a basic overview of the lean and six sigma history, terminology, methodologies and tools.
